What I'm looking for
At Forrest General Hospital, I work as a Cancer Registrar handling case-finding, abstracting, follow-up, and death clearance. I maintain my ODS-C credential through continuing education and contribute to quality assurance and cancer conference preparation.
I served as MCRA President from 2025–2026 and have been a member of NCRA since 2023. My cancer registry experience includes more than two years of remote work as an ODS.
Before moving into cancer registry work, I gained experience in medical reception, sales, and environmental services. I’m excited to keep learning and growing in the cancer registry field.
